Crews to film in El Paso for 'Dumb and Dumber To'

Movie crews will be in El Paso on Thursday to film scenes for "Dumb and Dumber To," the upcoming Universal Pictures sequel to the 1994 hit movie, directed by Bobby Farrelly and Peter Farrelly.

With the assistance of the El Paso Film Commission, the shoot will take place Downtown near the Judson F. Williams Convention Center. It is a closed set, and not a casting call.

The film, which began shooting in September, is set to be released next year and will feature El Paso as a stop on the two main character's road trip. The sequel will feature the stars of the 1994 road-buddy comedy film "Dumb and Dumber", Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels.
